# Skills & Experience

> I've always known I'd be working with computers; I grew up with the rise of the internet from a young age. While studying at Arcada UAS, I was fortunate enough to land my first development job, even before finishing my degree. That experience, along with the connections I made at Arcada, definitely pushed me towards entrepreneurship and building for the web. That's what I've done professionally since 2016, both at various companies and with my own. On this page, I'll share a bit more in-depth about my current experience and where I've worked.

I’ve always known I’d be working with computers. I grew up on the early, uncensored internet, landed my first developer position before finishing my studies, and have been active in several developer communities along the way. Between agency life, product engineering, and running my own company, I’ve been at it professionally since 2016.

Today, I heavily rely on an AI-native workflow to push out software harder, better, faster, and of course, stronger 💁‍♂️

See what skills I've gained over the years and where I've been working.
